The Chesapeake Public Schools Science Department is seeking parent and community input for the citywide adoption of the new K–8 science textbooks. Citizens are invited to examine the proposed textbooks and provide feedback. The window of opportunity to submit community feedback on science textbooks extends from November 23, 2020 through January 15, 2021. This year, the Science textbook review process will be conducted 100% online. A full list of textbook candidates have been curated by our Elementary Science Supervisor, Ms. Adrienne Sawyer, and our Secondary Science Supervisor, Mr. Ryan Wieck. The list links to online samples of the textbook resources currently under review. We request that citizens provide their feedback using the 2020 Science Textbook Adoption Public Feedback Survey.

 

Chesapeake Public Schools is proud to host three academies in three of our high schools. Middle school students across our district can apply to the International Baccalaureate program at Oscar Smith, the Governor’s STEM Academy at Grassfield High School, or the Science and Medicine Academy at Deep Creek High School. The application window for all three academies opens Tuesday, December 1, 2020 and closes Friday, December 18, 2020. For more information on each of these high quality programs, please review our 2021 Academy Informational Video.
A second informational video directed at student applicants and their parents highlighting information on the application process will be shared online on November 30, 2020.
